Özet

Policy Highlights To achieve the recommendation stated in the chapter

title, we propose the following:

• Provide an overarching shared definition of Agrivoltaics (AV) with

a precise balance between the agriculture and energy components—

general enough to guarantee agriculture will be kept as the primary

activity but flexible enough to adapt to specific conditions.

• Fund further Research and Development (R&D) through pilot

projects to investigate different technical configurations and crucial

parameters to improve the balance between energy production and

farming.

• Identify an integrated scheme of incentives for AV to prevent

agriculture from being abandoned in favour of energy production.

• Engage with local communities to develop local and national criteria

for implementing AV, support the continuation of agricultural

activity, raise local awareness, and foster active community involvement

in AV projects to maximise regional economic benefits and

avoid extractivist behaviours.

• Facilitate the dialogue between Social Sciences and Humanities

(SSH) and Science, Technology, Engineering and Maths (STEM)

communities by constructing a common definition of the AV policy

problems at stake.
